Availability
I am currently a second year medical student, which means I have a demanding, but somewhat flexible schedule. I’m always happy to chat with you about how I might be able to care for your pet’s needs.

About Katherine W.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My pets (dogs and cat) are members of my family, and I always strive to treat them as such with love, compassion, and respect. In my home, we are big on snuggling time on the couch or in bed, but of course, the preferences and boundaries set by any potential client would be most important.
Information Katherine W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special care requirements. I am happy to do my best to accommodate and will always communicate if I feel unable to safely or comfortably do so.
A typical day
A typical day in my pet-sitting care is customized to meet each pet's unique needs and preferences. At this time, I am most ideally suited for pets that can be good study buddies! :) From my experience, most pets want to follow their usual routine whatever that is! Throughout our time together, I provide attentive companionship, tailoring every activity to ensure your pet feels as cherished and secure as my own pets.

Pet care experience
I have been pet sitting with Rover for the last couple of years while in medical school. Currently, I am a second year medical student so apologies in advance as I may have a delayed response time. :) My 12-year-old Golden Retriever rescue is the absolute love of my life (now over the rainbow bridge🌈), and my 5-year-old cat, adopted from the animal shelter, is my entire world. This bond with my pets has given me invaluable insight into their needs and well-being. Additionally, I have intermittently cared for the animals of friends and family, ensuring they receive the same love and attention I give to my own pets. My dedication and genuine affection for animals make me a compassionate and reliable pet sitter. I always strive to give pets I care for the same amount of love and attention that I would want given to my own babies.

Reviews
Katherine did a great job taking care of our two dogs and keeping us up to date on their well-being during a "ruff" Fourth of July weekend of storms and fireworks.
Katherine was phenomenal! She took loving care of my 2 dogs with long walks, daily updates and lots of attention. She also took great care of my home and left it in perfect condition. I’ll definitely hire her again!
Katherine did wonderful job taking care of Stella. Updates and pics/videos put us at ease while we were away. Would absolutely love to have her again!
This is our second time booking with Katherine, and first time having her stay overnight. She is great and reliable and our pup Sky (husky, 12 yrs) has really taken to her. She gives great updates and we feel at ease knowing she’s there. Will definitely book again!
